Fig. 25 Key set
- Master key with remote control and integrated mechanical key
You can centrally lock and unlock your vehicle and start the engine with the master key with remote control. A mechanical key is integrated in the master key.
- Emergency key
The emergency key is not intended for constant use. It should only be used in an emergency. Keep it in a safe place and do not carry it on your key ring.
Key replacement
If you lose a key, contact your authorized Audi dealer immediately to have the lost key disabled. Be sure to bring all your keys with you.
Number of keys
You can inquire about the number of assigned keys to your vehicle. This
allows you to make sure you have received all of the keys when you purchase a
used vehicle. Depending on the vehicle equipment level, this function may also
be performed in the ММI. To do this, select:
function button > Car systems
control button > Servicing & checks > Programmed keys.
Data in the master key
During driving, service and maintenance-relevant data is continuously stored on your master key.
Your Audi service adviser can read out this data and tell you about the work your vehicle needs.
This applies also to vehicles with Convenience key.
Personal comfort settings
If two people use one vehicle, it is recommended that each person always uses "their own" master key. When the ignition is turned off or when the vehicle is locked, personal convenience settings for the following systems are stored and assigned to the remote master key.
- Climate control
- Central locking system
- Seat memory
- Parking system
- Adaptive cruise control
- Audi side assist
- Audi drive select
The stored settings are automatically recalled when you unlock the vehicle, when you open the doors or when you turn on the ignition.
WARNING
- Do not leave your vehicle unattended with the key in the ignition lock. Entry by unauthorized persons could endanger you or result in theft or damage the vehicle. Always lock all doors and take the key.
- Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle,
especially with access to vehicle keys.
Unguarded access to the keys provides children the opportunity to start the engine and/or activate vehicle systems such as the power windows etc. Unsupervised operation of any vehicle system by children can result in serious injury.
- Do not remove the key from the ignition lock until the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Otherwise the steering column lock could suddenly engage - causing the risk of an accident.
Tips
- The operation of the remote control key can be temporarily disrupted by interference from transmitters in the vicinity of the vehicle working in the same frequency range (e.g. a cell phone, radio equipment).
- If you open the driver's door with the key
left in the ignition lock, a chime will sound.
This is your reminder to remove the key and lock the door.
- For security reasons, replacement keys are only available from Audi dealers.
- For Declaration of Compliance to United States FCC and Industry Canada regulations.
